Advanced Diagnostics & Minimally Invasive Procedures
Services Include:
Pulmonary Function Testing
Bozeman Health offers comprehensive Pulmonary Function Testing to evaluate how well your lungs are working. These non-invasive tests measure lung volume, capacity, flow rates, and gas exchange to help diagnose and monitor conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis and other respiratory disorders.
Our state-of-the-art equipment and experienced respiratory therapists ensure accurate results, which are essential for developing personalized treatment plans.
Whether you’re experiencing shortness of breath, chronic cough, or managing a known lung condition, PFTs provide critical insights into your respiratory health.
* These tests are ordered by your pulmonologist or primary care provider and can be scheduled by calling the pulmonology clinic. We’ll arrange the appointment at whichever location is most convenient for you.

Navigational Bronchoscopy
Discovering a potential lung condition can feel overwhelming, especially when it’s unclear how or where to find answers. At Bozeman Health, we use advanced navigational bronchoscopy, a precise and minimally invasive procedure that acts like GPS for your lungs.
This cutting-edge technology guides a thin, flexible scope through the airways to access hard-to-reach areas, allowing us to obtain tissue samples, diagnose lung conditions earlier and more accurately, and develop a clear treatment plan tailored to your needs.
With navigational bronchoscopy, you can face your diagnosis with confidence, supported by advanced technology and a team dedicated to your care.

Sleep Studies
Bozeman Health Diagnostic Sleep Center, where sleep tests take place, uses the most up-to-date equipment to test for sleep disorders and conduct overnight sleep studies to provide our physicians with information to make a correct diagnosis of the sleep problem.
Our staff is highly trained, sensitive to patients whose lives are often disrupted by their sleep problems, and dedicated to providing the best solutions available that are customized to your or your child’s needs.
High-Resolution Imaging
Accurate diagnosis begins with clear, detailed imaging. Bozeman Health utilizes high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) and digital radiography to visualize lung structures with exceptional clarity.
These advanced imaging techniques are crucial for identifying interstitial lung disease, pulmonary nodules, infections, and other abnormalities that may not be visible on standard X-rays. Our radiology team works closely with pulmonologists to interpret results quickly and accurately, ensuring timely diagnosis and intervention.
High-resolution imaging is a cornerstone of our commitment to precision medicine in respiratory care.
Lung Biopsy Advanced
When imaging and testing suggest a more serious condition, Bozeman Health offers advanced lung biopsy procedures to obtain tissue samples for definitive diagnosis. Our pulmonologists use minimally invasive techniques such as bronchoscopy with transbronchial biopsy, endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), and CT-guided needle biopsy to access lung tissue safely and effectively.
These procedures are essential for diagnosing lung cancer, infections and inflammatory diseases. With a focus on patient comfort and safety, our team ensures that each biopsy is performed with precision and care, leading to faster diagnosis and treatment planning.
Abscess & Pathology Testing
Bozeman Health provides comprehensive abscess and pathology testing to support accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment of complex pulmonary conditions. Our laboratory services include the analysis of sputum, pleural fluid and lung tissue samples to detect infections, malignancies, and inflammatory markers.
These tests are vital for identifying bacterial, viral, or fungal pathogens, as well as for staging lung cancer and evaluating autoimmune lung diseases. Our integrated approach ensures that pulmonologists, pathologists and infectious disease specialists collaborate to deliver timely, evidence-based care tailored to each patient’s needs.
